Building Energy Simulation
• Simulation: (模擬)
• From latin “simulare” – to pretend
• Using a mathematical model of a system to predict
its output for a given input
• Asking “what if?” within an imaginary framework
• To simulate => to imitate the operations of real-
world facilities or process
• Examples:
• Computer simulation games like “SimCity”
• A child who role plays with toys
SimCity of Hong Kong’s buildings
Building Energy Simulation
• Simulation
• The process of developing a representative model
of a system and using it to analyze and predict
system behaviour and performance
• Modelling
• Deals primarily with the relationship between
actual dynamic processes and models
• Usually involves iterations
Physical Processes
Building Simulation
Building Performance
Design Performance
Decisions Optimisation
* Simulation enables the performance of the building to be
established before critical design decisions are taken,
enabling optimum building performance to be obtained

Assess Carbon Emissions
• Current limitations
• Unclear definition of ‘zero carbon’
• Lack of scientific assessment methods for carbon
footprint of building projects
• Limited data availability and uncertainty of data
• Complicated process for whole life cycle analysis
• Still weak market demand and awareness
• Future research
• Zero carbon building: definition
• Assessment tool for footprint analyses
